On rivers

I found an 🔗article on StJs channel and it rang a bell. He claims that many river names stem from the same Proto-Indo-European word, which is *dānu.

Now let me bring two things together: the rivers Danube, Dneistr, Dnieper and Don are the eldest rivers named like that. They all end up in the Black Sea, which once was a 🔗sweetwater lake and can be considered the 🔗Aryan urheimat.

The bad climatic happenings in the 6th millenium B.C. which left big parts of the Mediterranean and the Levant desolated spared the Black Sea basin, as the Bosporus was still closed and the surrounding valleys received fresh water from said rivers.

The Proto-Indo-European language originated in this area. The chance of this being our urheimat is quite high.
